[Episode 24]

After you please.

Don't be like this.

Like what?

No matter how you try to blur the lines,

you are still my life's benefactor.

I won't lie to you, even more so harm you.

Yes, but you keep things from me.

I've already said it.

As long as you say it, I will believe it

But even so, you won't even tell me a word!

I don't want to die...

I don't want to die! No!

I don't want to die...

I don't want to die...

That was seamless.

You're fine.

Give it back.

All you do is lie down and play games all day.

Look at your health.

I'm not only your doctor but I'm also your sister.

Are you not going to listen to me?

- No, return it to me first.
- I can give it back to you,

but you have to tell me something first.

What did Mr. Tan tell you yesterday before passing away?

Stop calling to rush me, okay?

I'd already told you yesterday. I don't have the money!

I am thinking of ways to raise money now.

Wang Xiangyang and his family are so unfair.

He owes me three months worth of rent.

I heard he still owes the hospital treatment fees, too.

Could he be talking about Brother Xiangyang?

This lady was originally doing fine.

Why did she attempt suicide?

It wasn't me.

It was a ghost.

Mr. Tan's spirit came back and haunted us.

I have good news and bad news.

Which would you like to hear first?

Then, I'll tell you the good news first.

There are no such things as ghosts in this world.

The bad news is

some people are scarier than ghosts.

What is your relationship with the other victim, Jin Hao?

It's better if you tell us.

Otherwise, we cannot help you.

I... Jin Hao...

We failed to save a life.

Granny Li Qian...

Who are you calling granny?

This really is a miracle in medical history.

Not only so.

This is totally a life miracle!

Little brother, what are you playing?

Come, let's play together.

Zu Ma, stop playing.

I have something to talk to you about in a bit.

Is it not convenient for us to be here? Should we...

Of course not, it's just some personal stuff.

I grew up together with Zu Ma.

I treat him like my own little brother.

We are quite close.

How long are you going to keep me here?

Forget it. Go back and get some rest first.

We'll talk tomorrow.

This kid seems to be addicted to games.

From the moment we stepped in,

his eyes haven't shifted from the game monitor.

He has recovered a lot in this period of time.

Although he is still not willing to socialize with others,

he doesn't cause conflicts with others anymore.

However, ever since Mr. Tan passed away,

his condition has worsened.

What a shame.

I was hoping to get some clues out of him.

What clues could Zu Ma possibly have?

Also, isn't that case already closed?

Who said it was closed?

We haven't interrogated Jin Hao yet.

Doctor Jin?

He is not in a stable condition now.

Wei Lan may seem cold and distant,

but she is a sweet and kind little lady.

Since you've already talked to her, you surely have gotten the information that you need.

Then, why did you bring this kid over here?

Zu Ma is really addicted to his games.

I don't know when it started

that his growth became stagnant.

As his doctor, I have no other ways to help him.

Mr. Zhao,

I heard that in the past you had experienced such similar cases.

You mean that this child is…

Yes, he is already more than 20 years old.

- Hello.
- The police statements of Mr. Tan's family members

are in sync with Wei Lan's.

This means that Mr. Tan committed suicide due to high hospital bills.

But the hospital has never pestered him for money.

In fact, they tried their best to treat him.

Although the supervision of the nurse was not careful at times,

they aren't worthy of such punishment.

Oh, yeah! Little Guo mentioned that he was going to sweep the grave at the cemetery.

If you bump into him, bring him back with you.

Easy for you to say.

You think I can bump into him just because you say it?

Brother Chu?

Brother Chu, let me introduce you.

This lady is called Dong Nan. I met her at the cemetery.

She came over with me though…

Maybe she doesn't like places with a lot of people.

Stop your nonsense. Come back with me to the Special Investigation Unit.

Initiating first contact.

Are you summoning the Sacred Items?

Synchronization rate is at 0%.

Searching for signal failed.

Oh heaven! I can't detect the dark energy.

Wouldn't I be losing my status as

the Most Sought After Bachelor in the High-Tech World?

Wake up. You never had that title from the beginning.

It's impossible.

I say, my unlucky friend, you cannot be discouraged.

I have an arduous yet glorifying task for you.

Boss, don't scare me.

This type of old model game cartridges is hard to find.

Study the game well.

I hope by the time I'm back tomorrow,

I will be able to see a report of the game's contents.

Boss, do I clock in hours by playing this game?

Yes, of course.

But this report has to have more than a hundred thousand words.

All the best.

One hundred thousand words?

Can't we negotiate the word count?

I never thought that I would feel bored buying a gaming console.

Cut the crap.

Old Zhao already gave you permission to play video games during work hours.

You should be satisfied.

What's wrong?

It's Sha Ya.

Wait. How do you know about her?

Your screensaver picture is of her.

While you were sleeping, you would call her name.

Sha Ya, Sha Ya, Sha Ya...

- Sha Ya.
- I'll kill (sha si) you!

I can't take you.

So embarrassing.

Watch my facial expression and play along.

We'll work together.

Come out.

What a coincidence.

Yeah…

This is your cat?

No, this is my boss...

cat.

No wonder it looks so annoying.

I have something on,

so I'll make a move first.

See you.

[Special Investigation]

Why are you playing in such grief and indignation?

How is this a game? This is torture.

And I can't even slack off.

If boss saw me lazing around, he'd dock my pay again.

B-B-Boss, why are you here?

B-B-Boss?

This is my first time learning that a stammer is contagious.

That's enough. Any findings?

Nothing much.

I consulted some of the sellers.

This game is more of a collection item rather than being actually played.

Apart from some bone ash-level players, no one else has ever played it.

Bone ash-level player? (meaning very old)

I saw someone like that today.

Looks like I'll have to go to the hospital to meet him again.

This mobile game is really broad and profound.

Why isn't Shen Wei here with you today?

He is giving a lecture.

He has two jobs, so tough on him.

For the sake of those we want to protect,

for the things we want to fight for,

sometimes, we can't have it easy.

Doctor Cheng, you must have had similar experiences.

Oh yes.

I reviewed the CCTV footage when Wei Lan attempted suicide.

Before that, there was someone else at the nurse's station.

Guess who it was.

How would I know that?

Here, have some coffee.

It's not that you can't guess, rather you don't want to.

Jin Hao and Wei Lan are connected to the death of Mr. Tan.

The only friend of Mr. Tan, though the difference in age,

was just one person.

Luckily, I had this cup of coffee.

Otherwise, I was really going to pass out.

I'm sorry.

Although Zu Ma is already of age,

I'm still his sister.

You're right. Human manipulation is much more fun

than any virtual reality games,

the more compared to these video games.

Zu Ma,

don't you want to play something bigger?

You have received the blessing from the Merit Brush.

Your special abilities have been fully awakened.

Whatever you want to do next,

you can decide for yourself.

If you want to back out…

Back out?

Are you kidding? It's rare to have such an opportunity like this.

I've not had enough fun yet.

Who are you?

The game has already begun.

This is a hospital.

Trespassing is not allowed.

Don't worry.

The main character of today isn't me.

I'm only here to spectate.

Who are you? Can you tell me your name?

(Bai Suxia.)

Bai Suxia?

Once you get used to doing things, mistakes are bound to happen.

Looks like I shouldn't eat everything people give in the future.

Hey, Dead Cat.

Bring everyone from the Special Investigation Unit

to the hospital for reinforcements.

Immediately.

Hi! Player One, I am your guide.

Please follow me.

Make sure to keep up with me. This game

does not have an extra life.

Who are you bringing me to?

The big boss of this game.

Oh, big boss?

Who is it?

My apologies, Player One.

I am not authorized to tell you this

Then, can I change my nickname?

Player One is too cliche.

My apologies, Player One.

I am not authorized to do that.

After you, please.

What is this then?

This is Player One's explosive tracker device.

If you fail a mission or leave before the end of the game,

the tracker device will explode.

The contents of the bomb will destroy everything in a 3-meter radius.

Player One, I cannot accompany you any further than this.

You must walk alone for the remainder of the path.

If you clear the mission, you will see me again.

Have fun!

Over here, please.

Thank you.

How is it? Is this real life game fun?

So it was you.

Little troublemaker,

why did you pick me?

Because I dislike you.

You people always act like you know everything.

But, in actual fact, you can't even manage your own life well.

What gives you a right to intervene in others' lives?

Is living differently from you considered a failure?

Is playing games considered a sin?

I'll admit this is my fault.

I should have spent some time to listen to your story yesterday.

Maybe in your next life.

I can tell that this real-life game is controlled by you.

You can even control others' speech and actions.

Your ability is powerful.

Actually, my ability wasn't so strong before.

It's thanks to the Merit Brush uncle that helped me.

I couldn't tell from the start.

For such a rebellious person like you,

you agreed to be his slave.

Who is working for him?

We did this out of mutual benefit.

I am going to get revenge for Mr. Tan.

But from what I can tell, the age difference between you two is huge.

So how are you so close to him that

you are willing to be someone's slave just to seek revenge for him?

What do you know?

Only Mr. Tan understood my passion for games!

He is the only who treated me like his family!

He understood me.

Took care of me.

I've spoken to Nurse Wei and Doctor Jin.

I told them that he wanted to commit suicide.

But they still weren't supervising him.

It's them. It's them!

They caused Mr. Tan to die!

Player One, we will now begin the first journey.

The time limit is 10 minutes.

If the mission is not completed within the time limit,

you will then "boom,"

and become beautiful fireworks.

You guys better not come over.

This isn't a place for humans.

The first mission can be collected at

the Internal Medicine Department.

The enemy boss

is already waiting for you there.

I don't understand what he is thinking.

He didn't explain fully and just asked us to come here

to fill in the spot of Professor Shen.

This hospital

feels fishy.

The first mission will now begin.

This is a classic game.

Russian Roulette.

This revolver

has six ammo slots.

We have already prepared one bullet for you.

The players will take turns revolving the ammo,

aim it at their heads, and shoot

until either player dies.

Welcoming 4 new NPC (non-playing character) to the game.

Your nicknames are:

Cute Boy,

Coffin-face,

Domineering Sister and Little White Rabbit.

Player One, you are running out of time.

If you give up now, apart from yourself,

the 4 new NPC will all be in danger.

The countdown will begin now.

10.

9,

8,

7...

Player One,

please do not cheat.

I admit defeat! I'll just admit defeat!

I don't want to die. I don't want to die.

Help me!

Round One.

K.O. (Knockout)

You bastard.

Player One, every dog has his day.

You have successfully cleared the first mission.

Everyone is envious of you.

The second mission is a classical 2D fighting game.

The fourth enemy boss

is already waiting for battle.

Fourth?

You guys are too easily controlled.

Looks like when we get back, we'll have to train your mental defense.

The weapon you will use is inside the cabinet on your left.

Player One,

do your best to live on.

The 10-second countdown will begin.

Looks like those few days of being blind wasn't such a waste after all.

Wow! Player One is so formidable.

Successfully cleared the second mission.

Please proceed to the final boss' hospital ward.

This is the ultimate stage.

Lucky one of two.

Player One, please proceed to the

assigned position with the final boss.

Choose one of the two cups of drinks in front of you and drink it.

Be careful though.

One cup has normal drinking water. The other has a deadly poison.

In the presence of life and death,

who shall be the lucky one?

Is this a joke?

This game will cost lives!

Little Troublemaker, come out now.

Show yourself!

You won't show yourself?

Fine.

If you rebel against the rules,

the final boss will drink both cups.

However, if Player One

drinks from either cups,

regardless if you live or die,

the game will end.

Are you satisfied?

Whether I drank the poison or end the game,

would he still be safe?

No! No!

I don't want to die. I don't want to die.

Save me! Save me!

Are you satisfied now?

These are the rules of the game.

Player One,

congratulations on clearing the stage.

- No...
- You will receive...

No, not like this. I wanted to stop it. I already said to stop.

These people...

These people are so foolish.

Not like this...

No, this is not what I wanted.

Killing people...

is different from playing a game!

That's because this isn't a virtual reality game but the gory truth.

No! No!

As I have guessed. The source of your power

is from this mobile phone.

You weren't in control of the game.

It's the game that controlled you.

Game...

Over...

No, it isn't over.

There is still a final stage: Human Bomber game.

I planted explosives in my ward.

The explosive is powerful enough to destroy this entire hospital.

I made a mistake.

Zu Ma, what happened Zu Ma?

I was wrong.

Zu Ma.

Don't move!

What's wrong?

Have a seat first.

This is a gravity balancer bomb.

If the ends of the bomb are slightly out of balance the bomb will explode.

Let me try.

Stop!

I shall use teleportation to take the bomb out of the hospital.

You can't!

Your dark energy will make the explosion even bigger.

But there is no other option now!

Get out of here quickly. Go now.

Big Brother,

we are a part of each other's lives now.

If you were to die, do you think I'd be able to feel well?

This bomb has at least twenty wires.

Every two wires constitute a loop.

And every five loops constitute a big loop.

We have to cut off two of the big loops that are connected to the ground zero loop.

If this was a normal bomb, I would have confidence.

But Zu Ma does not think logically.

He does things by gut feeling.

I'm afraid our chances of surviving are slim.

[Dragon City No. 1 Hospital]

We've become the laughing stock of those people again.

Shall we make a gamble?

On what?

That little troublemaker has restricted movement in the hospital

and couldn't have the chance to plant all the bombs that can destroy this hospital.

He may not have the chance,

but Ya Qing and the Master of the Merit Brush could have helped him.

Judging by Ya Qing's reaction,

it is obvious that she is taken aback by the current situation.

If this was planned by them,

then there is no use doing all these.

I'm sorry. The things I kept from you,

I will tell you one day.

Don't worry. That day will come.

If I had put in effort into studying electronics…

Then I wouldn't be able to show off my skills.

That needle was used to administer the test serum and it was a defective product.

How can you be so careless?

When the lab was infiltrated last time, didn't I tell you to make an inventory?

Did you do it or not?

Y-Yes, I have.

After I checked, I did some cleaning. Maybe it was then that I missed that needle.

You can't lose even one needle. That contains the top secret of our experiment.

It can harm innocent people if any accidents happen. It can even create a big uproar.

Are you going to be responsible for this?

Scram! Scram!

Professor.

Thank you.

Compared to when I first met you,

your temperament has become worse.

The chances of finding that needle are slim.

I only hope that the needle was gotten rid of, and not misused by others.

This is so ominous.

There can't be…

Go to Wuli Village.

Sir, I don't go to suburb areas.

I have to hurry back to handover to the next shift.

This place is already very deserted.

No need for a meter. Just get me there.

Sir--

[Taxi]

At this time of the night,

why are you going to Wuli Village?

To look for someone.

Welcome back to the fiction novel continuous broadcast.

Wei Nan looked at the back seat using his rear mirror.

The granny had disappeared.

He slammed the breaks,

turned around, and looked.

He saw—

Why did you hit the brakes?

N-Nothing.

I was doing my shoelaces.

...sitting on the seat.

Make a right ahead and we're there.

If you didn't do anything wrong,

why are you so afraid?

If you didn't do anything wrong,

you shouldn't be afraid.

[Dragon City No. 1 Hospital]

I really didn't want to kill them,

but I hurt them.

I'm sorry.

Now I know games are so boring.

Zu Ma.

Zu Ma!

Zu Ma!

The Merit Brush is a double-edged sword.

His special abilities were forcefully destroyed.

Once they are broken,

there is no hope.

I'm sorry.

Console her.

Zu Ma...

Why are you two only back now?

Are you wondering why

you woke up at home?

Weren't you supposed to be at the hospital entrance earlier?

How did you two know?

Is the hospital case settled?

What about the Master of the Merit Brush?

Have you got any leads?

The Master of the Merit Brush seems to have

a deep hatred for this hospital.

The things that happened in the hospital

was just the opening ceremony.

In order to get what he wants,

he will use any means necessary.

We have to apprehend him quickly.

As doctors,

aren't we supposed to help treat those in need?

Rest assured, Zu Ma.

I won't let my next patient walk the same path as you.

Doctor Cheng.

This is the medical record you requested on Bai Suxia.

[Wang Xiangyang]

At Dragon City Hospital, Wei Lan's and

Jin Hao's documents are all here.

There's no need for all those.

I already have a suspect in mind.

Chief Zhao!

The Seastar Administration just sent over a criminal.

There is something wrong with this case.

An honest and old taxi driver was having supper last night

when he erupted in rage out of the blue and hurt someone.

Old taxi driver?

Da Qing,

you and Old Chu go to the crime scene and have a look.

Little Guo,

you and I will go meet this

old taxi driver.

Zhu Hao, male, 40 years old,

a taxi driver.

According to his colleagues, he's honest and down to earth,

but is timid.

[Personal File on Zhu Hao]

Driver Zhu, according to your colleagues,

you are usually someone who is nice to be around.

Nice to be around?

They can't wait to tease and laugh at me.

Greed for money, but is timid.

Afraid to voice opinions. You probably have also heard

that my wife cheated on me.

I still had to bear with it.

Chief Zhao, this Zhu Hao and the one described by his colleagues

seem to be two different people.

Could this be a personality split?

There must be some type of symptom beforehand, right?

How can he suddenly split personality?

Are you two quite done? Are you going to interrogate me or not?

Fine.

Last night, when you were at a big stall on Jin Long Street

having a meal with your friends,

you suddenly used a beer bottle to hit the waiter beside you.

This was justifiable self-defense. He bumped into me.

Little Guo, go check

if he has any wounds on his body to justify a self-defense excuse.
